Appalled

a) by the way interviews are conducted here. I really hope the experience is not representative of recruiters in HK. The interviewer didn't shake hands, didn't handout their name card, and, openly bashed the person who referred me. I can understand the first two irregularities - HKers are not usually known for being friendly or wellcoming- but the last part was down right rude.

b) by the combo of minimum wage and horrendously long hours : 12 hrs a day Mon - Fri + unpaid overtime on weekends, and if you want to get promoted sooner, extra projects to take on in your own time, sans pay of course.
I might as well go into i-banking... at least I'd be sufficiently compensated for selling my soul to the corporation.
